Enjoy a quiet week or more on beautiful Peacham Pond in northern Vermont! This summer-early fall lakeside camp offers almost all of the comforts of home in a beautiful and peaceful setting. The property comes with a canoe, as well as a shared dock where you can tie up your small motor or sailboat. A public boat launch is located across the pond. Swimming is ideal in this clean, milfoil-free lake. Watch the loons, kingfishers and great blue herons as you canoe or kayak the quiet waters. The pond is adjacent to the 25,000 acre Groton State Forest offering many miles of hiking and biking on logging roads, snowmobile trails and a new rail-to-trail. Peacham Pond is home to at least 3 pairs of Common Loons, most of which produce one or two chicks each season. Mid to late September features the fall foliage season, not to be missed.
Inside, the light and airy camp has Vermont native pine floors and walls. A complete and well-equipped kitchen will enhance your stay. Two comfortable recliners and a couch flank the wood-burning fireplace in the living room. The living room and dining area face the lake. A sliding glass door opens onto a large deck, the perfect spot to watch those spectacular sunsets. A screened porch is located adjacent to the living room. A bedroom with a queen bed and a full bathroom are also located on the first floor, as are the washer and dryer. The upstairs has two small bedrooms with a total of 5 built-in single beds and a half bath (located in one of the bedrooms).
Numerous day trips can enhance your stay including the Cabot Creamery, makers of the World's best cheddar located in the nearby village of Cabot. The Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium, Maple Grove Museum, and the Athenaeum Library & Art Gallery are located in St. Johnsbury, approximately a 30 minute drive. Ben and Jerry’s factory is located in Waterbury (45 minutes) along with several other tourist destinations enroute to Stowe and the Trapp Family Lodge.
